In wake of this month I propose we get on down to drawing and painting some creepy but cute jack o lanterns in Photoshop, using some basic fundamentals of tonal values. It’s a wonderful exercise for artists of beginner to intermediate level (preferably a bit more experience in Photoshop), where we can practice a few things we’ve learned in my previous videos, and more! We’re going to sketch out and line our Jack o Lantern, then do a quick analysis on lights and darks on a form when we approach our painting. I’m also going to point out some quick Photoshop tricks that can help bring a bit more "oomf" to our little pumpkins.
So without further ado, let’s talk about what we’ll need for this lesson! Today we’ll be using Photoshop, I'm using CS6, but any version should be fine, a drawing tablet, the internet, for references, and some textured brushes. You can either make your own, or if you’re a lazy butt like me you can download some for free. More info - https://skl.sh/2ygnkS6
